I don't know why people just pick on Solaris going down, almost everything is going down at the moment. Yes Solaris might of take a big hit but so have many other coins. If people believe in the long term future of Solaris then they will continue to hold and not worry about the price going down as we have seen this many times before. The problem was that Solaris got a massive pump which was the cause of a couple of things, the Kucoin listing and the zerocoin protocol being implemented in January which sparked a lot of interest in the coin. We know how the zerocoin protocol went which I think hurt the price a little but most of it was due to the whole market going down almost 50%. People's expectations are now too high and they expect Solaris to remain at a high price when in fact this isn't the case and that goes for all coins. I'm sure that in the future, Solaris will regain its value as more developments are released and a lot will depend on how well the txbit exchange will go.
txbit.io exchange can make a milestone for Solaris project, might be up, might be down. As I mentioned earlier in another threads, the exchange should have different trading pairs, such as altcoins/BTC, altcoins/ETH, altcoins/DASH, altcoins/XMR, and most importantly altcoins/XLR

You touched on the main reason why I am not dumping my mined XLR, the txbit.io exchange can propel XLR. I wonder if txbit.io will be a standard exchange like you mentioned or a XLR-centric exchange?
Imagine tradings pairs XLR/BTC, XLR/ETH, XLR/DASH, XLR/XMR, and XLR/altcoin. This would elevate XLR to the same status as the other coins, giving investors a lower cost coin to trade with (i.e. consumers for XLR). So far all my trades on Bittrex have been from one altcoin to another. I am forced to use an intermediate coin like BTC. If altcoins could get listed easily (and cheaply) on txbit.io, it would pull miners and investors to txbit.io. Plus and can move my profits with ZeroSolaris

I am holding and waiting for more info on txbit.io. Mined another 0.76818476 XLR today.
